’Tweedledum + Tweedledee agreed to paint a wall by Su_G' (https://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/6385701): My entry in the Skillshare Whimsical Watercolor Fantasy Creatures Design Challenge. © Su Schaefer 2017 As with so many children's rhymes, Tweedledum and Tweedledee began as a political statement - on the lack of difference between 'warring' or rival entities - as this quote by Helen Keller, about democracy in the US (but I'm pretty sure it's the same in many countries), makes clear: "Our democracy is but a name. We vote? What does that mean? It means that we choose between two bodies of real, though not avowed, autocrats. We choose between Tweedledum and Tweedledee." More on The Curious Origins of Tweedledum and Tweedledee (https://interestingliterature.com/2015/05/07/the-curious-origins-of-tweedledum-and-tweedledee/). See more ‘quirky’ designs by Su_G.
